Full Trailer Arrives For Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle

Warner Bros. has released the full trailer for the latest adaptation of The Jungle Book, called Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle. The film was directed by Andy Serkis, who also lends his voice to the film. It also stars Rohan Chand, Christian Bale, Benedict Cumberbatch, Cate Blanchett, Peter Mullan, Tom Hollander, Naomie Harris, Eddie Marsan, and Jack Reynor. It arrives in theaters on November 29, before moving to Netflix on December 7.

Here’s a synopsis: Blending live action and performance capture, the story follows the upbringing of the human child Mowgli (Chand) raised by a wolf pack in the jungles of India. As he learns the often-harsh rules of the jungle, under the tutelage of a bear named Baloo (Serkis) and a panther named Bagheera (Bale), Mowgli becomes accepted by the animals of the jungle as one of their own. All but one: the fearsome tiger Shere Khan (Cumberbatch). But there may be greater dangers lurking in the jungle, as Mowgli comes face to face with his human origins.
